Mr. Matti Makkonen and ISMS
Mr. Matti Makkonen, a pioneer in the development of SMS text messaging says that iSMS is delivering his vision of mobile phone based booking transactions. Makkonen says, that this interactive version of SMS is quickly gaining popularity because it works on any mobile phone and on any mobile network without installing any software on the phone.
Mr Matti Makkonen says Bookit’s innovation is very clever because it uses the benefits of an already existing SMS standard but manages SMS transactions intelligently by adding “fingerprints” to each message. The network does not notice these secret fingerprints and as a result the iSMS service can be used by any of the existing 5 billion SMS users internationally and on any phone.

Famous quotes containing the word isms:
““There is Lowell, who’s striving Parnassus to climb
With a whole bale of isms tied together with rhyme,
He might get on alone, spite of brambles and boulders,
But he can’t with that bundle he has on his shoulders,
The top of the hill he will ne’er come nigh reaching
Till he learns the distinction ‘twixt singing and preaching;”
—James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
